Taltorvic (ridaforolimus)

To model acquired resistance, we established two mTORi-resistant TNBC cell lines, MDA-MB-231/DREVE and MDA-MB-231/DRRIDA through chronic exposure to everolimus and ridaforolimus, respectively...Pharmacological inhibition of upstream TGF-β signaling with galunisertib suppressed PMEPA1 and synergistically restored sensitivity to mTORi in both invitro and xenograft models, resulting insignificant tumor regression...Collectively, these findings establish PMEPA1 as a dual modulator of canonical and non-canonical TGF-β signaling and a critical mediator of mTORi resistance in TNBC. Targeting the TGF-β/PMEPA1 axis represents a promising strategy to overcome resistance and improve clinical outcomes in mTORi-refractory TNBC.

Collectively, the findings offer valuable molecular insights for biomarker validation and potential drug development in t(4;14) MM diagnosis and treatment, with ivermectin emerging as a potential therapeutic alternative.

A review of the current literature was conducted to identify enzymes involved in the metabolism of Sirolimus, Everolimus, Ridaforolimus, and Temsirolimus along with characteristics of tumors that predict the efficacy of these agents. Current evidence suggests that tumors with mutations in the mTOR signal transduction pathway are sensitive to rapalogue treatment; the rapalogues are metabolized by cytochromes such as CYP3A4, CYP3A5, and CYP2C8 and transported by ABC transporters that are known to vary in activity in individuals; and that tumors can express these transporters and detoxifying enzymes. This results in three levels of genetic analysis that could impact the effectiveness of the mTOR inhibitors.

Potential drugs associated with high CDH6 expression were also predicted, including AMG-22, rutin, CCT128930, deforolimus, bis(maltolato)oxovanadium, anagrelide, vemurafenib, CHIR-98014, and AZD5582. Thus, this study showed that CDH6 correlates with glioma immune infiltration, it is expressed mainly in AC-like malignant cells, and it may act as a new target for glioma therapy.

mTORC1 inhibition with rapamycin analog Ridaforolimus suppresses TRIM28 phosphorylation, hTERT expression, and cell viability. This study may lead to hTERT-directed cancer therapies with reduced effects on normal progenitor cells.

Cell line and xenograft experiments were performed using LK-2 LUSC (NFE2L2 E79K mut), A549 ADCL (KRAS G12S + KEAP1 loss), and SK-MES-1 LUSC cells (NFE2L2/KEAP1 WT) treated with TAK-228, everolimus, rapamycin, or deforolimus. TAK228 is tolerable with differential activity in NFE2L2 (primary endpoint met) and KEAP1 mutant LUSC. A randomized phase 2 trial of TAK228 + docetaxel vs. SoC chemotherapy in advanced LUSC pts with NFE2L2/KEAP1 mut is in development (LungMAP S1900D) as is an NCI CTEP phase 1/1b trial of TAK228 + CB-839 in advanced NSCLC patients with NFE2L2/KEAP1 mut (NCI #10327).
